Admission to NFC
From the moment you step onto the North Florida College campus, you will find faculty, staff and administrators ready to help you reach the goals you have set for your future.
Which Type of Student Are You?
Veterans
Registered Students: Request Certification Here (log in using your MyNFC credentials)
Veterans and dependents of veterans eligible for educational benefits must be approved by the VA Regional Office. Upon approval, benefits may take up to 90 days to be received. For VA application forms, certification of attendance, and assistance with problems, students may contact pleasantl@nfc.edu in the Office of Enrollment Services. Veterans and those eligible for VA benefits must contact a Veteran's Affairs Specialist each term during the academic advisement period to review their status. Veterans with disabilities are encouraged to work with a Veterans' Affairs Specialist and the Disability Resource Center to coordinate accommodations.
Transfer to a University
Florida has a “2+2” articulation system. Students who earn an Associate in Arts degree from one of Florida’s other community colleges are guaranteed admission to one of the 12 state universities.*
- Students who hold an A.A. degree from a Florida community college will be awarded at least 60 credit hours toward the bachelor’s degree, thus protecting the credits they earned during their freshman and sophomore years at the community college.
- Community college students who transfer to a state university before earning an A.A. degree do not have all the guarantees provided by the articulation agreements and may be denied admission or lose credit when transferring. In most cases, students who transfer without an A.A. degree will have to meet freshman admission standards.
